Of House Guests and Empty Rooms

David

David Lancashire of AdsoTrans fame is in town this weekend. He wrote a little about Shanghai in his new blog.

My roommate Lenny is leaving Shanghai for Taipei tomorrow (with his new t-shirt!). I’m moving out of this apartment in early January. It’s been a great place, and I really like having the extra room for guests. These past few months we’ve had lots of visitors, like Mark of toshuo, Poagao, Alf, Greg (house guest extraordinaire), Lenny’s sister, and now David.

Lenny

This “free hotel” business isn’t going to last much longer, but until I move into my new place, I don’t mind it at all. With Lenny gone, this three bedroom apartment is going to seem quite empty.

   I live 40 minutes away, but love hotels, especially free ones… if you wash my towels and bring me little bars of soap, I’ll be there in a flash! :-)

   Yeah, your “free appartment” rocked. I’m glad to have been able to stay there, and I’m glad I lived with good friends and did a similar thing in the past, too. Enjoy each phase of life while it lasts.

   Well, Greg, I’ll let you know when the time comes, but it probably pales to a date with a L’Oréal Girl.

   Though we didn’t get to spend much time together, I appreciated your hospitality. Good luck with the new place.
